Default Front end squeak

Ok.. I thought I needed struts, but now I think the squeak is coming from the base of the driver's side coil spring.

Have any of you had this issue?

The struts do not leak and seams to working fine.. I just have this annoying squeaking noise.

Is ther a rubber isolater on these springs that may have worn?

There are supposed to be rubber iso's in there. Are they stock or lowering springs? Also, does it squeek while driving, over bumps, or while turning the wheel? It could be dry socket in a ball joint or tie rod end... That will squeek like hell when turning the wheel.
